>Yesterday, you the player awoke to find yourself alone in the woods with no memory, not even of yourself.
>After wandering around for a while, you eventually came across APPLEBLOOM who was being attacked by some strange goo monsters.
>You got her to jump in your arms and ran off away from danger.
>When asked what your name was, you panicked and made up a name on the spot (Rusty Shackleford).
>Together, you and Applebloom found your way out of the EVERFREE FOREST and made it to PONYVILLE.
>It was seemingly a ghost town, but Appleblooms friends SCOOTALOO and SWEETIE BELLE made themselves known and tried to convince her to get inside away from the monster.
>You thought they meant you, but it turns out the town was being attacked by a BIG JELLY CUBE.
>You jumped into the house with the others, but the jelly monster tried to break in.
>You and the ponies made your way to the back and eventually made it to an open window.
>You tried to escape but the jelly monster got you by the leg. Luckily you were able to fight it off.
>The ponies tried to pull you out, but you made it out on your own, Applebloom still biting your scalp.
>When we last left off, you and the three other little ponies were laying on the ground behind the house, as the jelly monster was starting to ooze the both through and around the house to you.
The jelly monster is definitely after you and your little friends. Probably best not to just stay out in the open and let it do that.
You pry little Applebloom off your head and set her down. "OK, you three know the town! Run! Go hide somewhere!"
The other two take off together without hesitation. Applebloom joins them, but stops and turns back.
"But....but what are you going to do?!" Applebloom yells back at you.
You look back to her, then to the jelly cube and then back to her. "What are you talking about? I'm following you, lead the way!"
And with that you and the other ponies take off away from the monster as it makes its way over the house. The little ponies had a head start but you were able to keep sight of them. Eventually, they all stop at a fountain at what you assume is the TOWN SQUARE. They're out of breath.
"What are... what are we going to DO?!" Cries the little white one.
"We need help!" Says the determined orange one. "We should fine RAINBOW DASH and the others!"
"No, we should hide!" Yells the white one again. "It's too dangerous. That thing will catch us!"
Applebloom is looking between her friends and you with a frantic look, not sure what to do. Over your shoulder, you see the jelly monster coming around the corner not too far away, its gooey body glistening in the sun as it makes quick work of the distance gap.
You feel that the best course of action to HIDE. You ask the little ponies if they can think of a good place to hide, maybe a police station or something.
The tree of them seem a little confused at the question. "Well... there might be some GUARDS at the TOWN HALL!" Says the little orange one with wings. "It's not too far from here!"
"Or we might be able to make it to my house!" Pipes up the white one with a horn. "My sister will know what to do!"
"Ahh, we need to do something!" Shrieks Applebloom. "It's getting closer!"
Looking back, the cube is in fact getting dangerously close!
You tell the other three that the TOWN HALL sounds like the best idea, especially if there are any guards.
"Right! I know a short cut!" The little orange one flaps her little wings and runs off to the side.
The other two chase after she, and you after them. Together you all charge off away from the cube. Moments later, you hear a bang and look back to see it had demolished through the fountain, still chasing after you.
You then trip on something and fall on your face pretty hard.
Stars still sparkling in your vision, you try to turn over as quickly as you can and look back. You apparently tripped over... the little white pony? She's on the ground near by, struggling to get up and making little pained noises. She must have fallen or something!
You look behind her and the cube is getting dangerously close again. You're not badly hurt, so you quickly pick yourself up and run to recover the little pony. You quickly scoop her in your arms, but not before the cube is towering over both of you.
The jelly cube charges you and the wounded pony in your arms. With no opportunity to get up and run, and not really liking the idea of taking it on with your new found bundle, you make a desperate attempt to DODGE to the side and take off running away from it and take off down an alley way.
You manage about half that... jumping to the side away from the cube, it charges past where you were just sitting a moment ago. But you couldn’t really get your footing after that. You stumble, fall down and lose hold of the little pony, who goes tumbling away from you.
Trying to get to your feet after falling TWO times in a row, you call to the little pony to run! She stirs, but is still making pained sounds and can't seem to get up.
You try to get up and recover her again, but are stopped by the sudden sensation of wet stinging on your legs and back, followed by the sensation of being pulled backwards!
You have once chance before the cube envelops you completely. You struggle with your pockets as the monster begins to fill them and, ignoring the pain of the stinging jelly, you flick open the little metal lighter.

Does this thing have any fuel?!
Click
Click OK there it goes.
You shove the lighter to the cube's side, trying to burn it with the little flame. The flesh (can you call it flesh?) near the fire quiver momentary and seems to draw away from it....but the entire rest of the cube keeps pushing forward!
"Oh you have to be kidding!" Was all you were enveloped completely into the beast! The sensation of being covered in the good stings like mild chemical burn EVERYWHERE, inducing your eyes, not to mention the incredibly discussing feeling of this semi-wet goo and the panic of not being able to breath. You can still see... barely! It's not the best material to see through, plus it's like lemon juice in your eyes! You can feel it pushing you even more, forcing you into its center...
You thrash around and try to muscle your way out of the cube...but you have no leverage and it keeps pushing! It's like swimming upstream! A stream of that stings the hell out of you! But then you hit something.
Looking around, you see there's some stuff floating around in the cube. Mostly just bits of sticks and junk but there's also... another pony?! Bigger then the other three you met already. It's pink with big pink hair and is looking at you cheerfully, despite the situation. It's... actually trying to talk to you. You can't hear anything besides muffled garbles CAUSE YOU ARE IN A CUBE. But it just keeps on talking.
Behind this new pony, you see the cube is now making its way to the little white pony, who has barely moved from where she fell...
